Zusammenfassung:This paper presents results of an on-going joint European Commission / OECD project, aimed at monitoring the direct influence of tax and benefit instruments on household incomes. Indicators of financial work incentives are needed for identifying any undesired influences of taxes and social transfers on peoples' work decisions. At the same time, a central part of recent tax and benefit reform strategies has been to reduce reliance on welfare by making work pay, that is, to make work an economically attractive option relative to welfare. It is therefore desirable to monitor the effects of such policies as well as the potential for further reform.
